Hello, and welcome to my blog! My name is Dee, and I hate pests. I have struggled with many pests in my home, but contrary to popular misconception, these pests have been bigger than mice or cockroaches or ants. Rather, I have had squirrels in the attic and various marsupials living under my porch. This blog is devoted to getting rid of the larger animals. It contains everything I have learned about removing and deterring these creatures. If you hate pests but want to focus on the larger pests, you have come to the right place. Please explore my blog and enjoy!

Anyone in the food industry knows that the sight of a housefly is one of the quickest ways to lose customers. Such an unpleasant sight can be prevented by taking several measures. This article discusses some of those helpful preventive measures.
Position the Rubbish Bin Properly
One of the simplest measures that you can take to keep houseflies away from your restaurant is by placing the rubbish bin as far away from your restaurant as possible, such as in an alley behind the restaurant. That distance will reduce the likelihood that houseflies will swam near or within your restaurant. An additional step that you can take is to keep the bin covered tightly so that houseflies don't have access to its contents.
Use Odour Suppressants
You can also reduce the likelihood of houseflies invading your restaurant by using a product that kills food odours when your employees are wiping surfaces, such as countertops, where food has been prepared. The suppression of the odours will eliminate one of the conditions that attract flies to the restaurant's kitchen. Make sure that the solution that you select isn't hazardous since you will still use the treated surfaces to prepare more food later on.
Install Electronic Zappers
It may be hard for you to keep houseflies out of your restaurant completely. You should therefore institute measures to kill those few that will still find their way in. Electronic zappers are examples of gadgets that you can use for this purpose. Select inconspicuous locations, such as underneath corner sinks and beneath kitchen countertops, so that the customers in your restaurant don't see the houseflies that have been killed by the device.
Use Baits and Traps
You can also use housefly baits and traps to manage the numbers of houseflies that enter your restaurant. These baits and traps can be installed at selected points outside the restaurant so that the problem is managed from outside before the pests enter the restaurant. For example, you can position the baits within the flowerbeds outside your restaurant. Such mechanisms will reduce the number of houseflies that you may have to deal with inside the restaurant.
DIY housefly control measures often have limited effectiveness. You may therefore have to call in professional pest controllers to design an effective system to keep the houseflies away in case the infestation has shown no sign of being contained after you have tried all you can on your own.
